One plus one makes three: the right message in front of the right audience. AI-generated image, Aljaweea
Aljaweea reaches the people who run aviation and aerospace in the Middle East and North Africa. Reach them with us.
We are a daily bilingual publication — English and Arabic — covering civil aviation, military aviation, space and the culture around flight. Our readers are not a broad consumer crowd. They are the professionals who decide, specify and buy.
Why advertise with us
Most advertising chases scale. Aljaweea offers something scarcer: a defined, senior, regional audience that is hard to reach anywhere else.
A niche others cover thinly. MENA aviation and aerospace is a fast-growing market with few publications devoted to it in both English and Arabic. We report it daily, in depth, in the language our readers think in. An advertiser here sits beside serious journalism, read by people who take the sector seriously.
Genuine bilingual reach. Every story runs in English and Arabic. Your message can travel the same way — to decision-makers across the Middle East and North Africa reading in Arabic and to international suppliers reading in English, in one buy, on one platform.
Trust by association. Readers come to Aljaweea for accurate, independent reporting. A brand that appears alongside that work borrows some of its credibility. We protect that trust carefully, which is why we keep advertising and journalism separate (see below) — and why a placement here carries more weight than a banner lost in a general feed.
Who you reach
Our readers are aviation and aerospace professionals across the region and beyond:
decision-makers at airlines, airports, and ground-handling and MRO firms;
manufacturers and suppliers across civil and military aviation;
defence, space and government bodies shaping regional policy;
a smaller tail of senior readers abroad who follow the MENA market closely.
The readership spans the Gulf and the wider Middle East and North Africa; the lean is professional rather than enthusiast.
Advertising options
We offer two ways to reach our readers.
Display advertising
Standard display placements across the site, in English and Arabic, on desktop and mobile. Formats, positions and specifications are available on request; email [email protected].
Sponsored and partner content
Articles and features produced with you, telling your story to an audience that already cares about the sector. You can supply the content or work with us to shape it. All sponsored and partner content is clearly labelled as such, every time, so readers always know what they are reading. We explain why below.
If your goal does not fit either option neatly, tell us — we would rather find the right fit than sell the wrong one.
How we keep advertising and journalism separate
Independence is the reason our readers trust us, and the reason advertising with us is worth anything. So the line is firm.
Advertisers do not influence our news judgment, our coverage or our editorial decisions. Sponsored and partner content is always labelled clearly and is never disguised as independent reporting. This separation protects you as much as it protects the reader: it keeps the audience you are paying to reach worth reaching.
